I noticed you have your fern in a terra cotta pot. Not sure why. Those are best for desert plants. This is opposite. It likes lots of water. I would change pot to plastic pot so it doesn’t pull water away from roots.

Thanks for telling me I had no clue cause that is the pot that it actually came in

That yellowing leaf looks close to the bottom, which is normal. The little brown spots may just be from lack of humidity.
